from the comments “This genre is called Rub-a-Dub. That’s what dancehall music originated from. Rub-a-Dub is music that is based on singing on only one note, that’s why he sounds like he’s rapping. To understand what Rub-a-Dub is more, listen to some artists like, Early B or Ranking Joe.”

yeah roots and dub was a very very special place and time. the power of the music is a testament of the ability of vibration to awaken, transform and transport. timeless in its message and universal in its reach. not to say it won’t happen again with another form in another special way, but roots teach the youth like none other. its rooted in culture. something we as 2018 metamoderns craaaaaave. plant the seeds and see what grows…

the source material is a common space, a studio, a campfire, a town square, a lazy day when the work was done and fun could be had riffing on the jams of the times that those most musical mastered to convey to the apprentice youth so that they could strive to create themselves. copyright kills this. we mine culture for replication, society of dem spectical etc etc. modern mans cage.

maybe roots was one of the real ones, one of the last ones for a good generation or so, but only a matter of time until the pendulum swings back. ok ok too much serious here’s some eek a mouse.
